The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns that indoor air pollution is among the top environmental health risks facing Americans. If you’d like to ensure that your air is pollution-free, Air Source 1 recommends indoor air quality testing in Mokena, IL.
Through IAQ testing, we can determine the exact air quality issues you’re dealing with. Our team can then help you explore the solutions that make sense for your home and your budget.
"Tim came out, checked my unit, cleaned it & added freon. Very nice guy! Even though my unit is warrantied with someone else, I will definitely be calling Air Source 1 from now on!" - Jackie J.
The EPA advises scheduling IAQ testing every other year. The primary reason for this is radon. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers.
The gas is odorless, tasteless, and invisible. It seeps up from the ground and can start seeping into your home suddenly. Our team can also test for other dangerous gases, such as carbon monoxide (CO).
We can test for chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs). VOCs are present in many of the household cleaners and other products that consumers use. They can also off-gas from new purchases for your home, including furniture, rugs, drapes, and so on.
It’s also important to assess the amount of particulate matter (PM) in the home. There is both fine and large PM. Fine PM is 2.5 microns and smaller. These are the particles modern medicine links to many cardiovascular and respiratory illnesses.
Large PM is what we think of as allergens. This can include dust, pet dander, and pollen. It can also include mold spores, fungal spores, and dust mite detritus and eggs.
We’ll identify not only which pollutants and contaminants are present but also their sources. The source could be ambient air pollution, in which case you likely need an air purifier to deal with it.
The source can also be the household itself. People often inadvertently introduce pollution. Examples including overwatering houseplants and using chemical deodorizers and toxic household cleaners.
IAQ testing can help you with many issues.
